AWARDS AND PRESENTATIONS PROCLAMATIONS Mayor Knight presented the Proclamation that was previously approved. OFF AGENDA ITEM KGE RATES Motion-- Knight moved that the rules be set aside and an Item be taken up off the -- carried Agenda. Motion carried 7 to 0. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight stated, “Wichita residents have recently seen graphic and expensive proof of the shocking situation regarding the electric rates Western Resources charges its KGE customers. The heat wave which swept the nation forced Wichita area residents to raise their thermostats, face rolling blackouts, and still pay prices far higher than Western Resources charges its other customers. “The rates Western Resources charges its customers in the Wichita area and the rest of the KGE service area, in a word, is unfair. I have talked about it; Government Relations director, Mike Taylor, has talked about it; everyone on the City Council has talked about it; and I am sure some of you have talked about it, but the only thing which really makes a difference is if all of us are talking about it, and if all the residents and business owners in this community talk about it. “Former U.S. Senator, Gaylord Nelson, the founder of Earth Day, said, ‘If you want to move the Nation, to make hard decisions on important issues, the grass roots is the source of power.’ We truly believe that in this community.” “Western Resources charges KGE customers, people living across south central and southeastern Kansas, a lot more for electricity than it charges its KPL customers who live in such towns as Salina, Topeka, and Kansas City. Homeowners in Wichita are charged 41.5 percent more than their neighbors would be in Topeka. Commercial businesses in Wichita are charged 48.5 percent more than their neighbors would be in Topeka. Industrial customers in Wichita, the customers that are literally employing, along with small businesses, tens of thousands of us, are charged almost 29 percent more than if they were sited in Topeka, Kansas.” For example, a $100 home electric bill for a City of Wichita customer would only cost $58 if that were in Topeka, Kansas. A $500 commercial business bill for KGE, citizens in Wichita and in the KGE service area, would only cost $258 if that small business or enterprise were in Topeka, Kansas. A $10,000 bill for a manufacturer located in Wichita would only cost $7,150 if they were located in northeast Kansas, and that is after the first phase of an ordered rate reduction that became effective January 1st for this customer base. An argument is often made that, even with the rate disparity, Western Resources is still charging Wichita customers rates below the national average. That is true. KGE rates for residential customers are 3.7 percent below the national average. But, the KPL rates (Topeka residents) for residential customers are over 29 percent below the national average. That national average is determined by high energy costs for east and west coast cities. On any given day, the Wolfcreek Nuclear Power Plant is providing electricity to both sets of customers, Wichita and Topeka. KPL customers, north central and northeast customers, are benefitting from Wolfcreek. But, Western Resources is making the Wichita customer base pay the full cost of the plant. Meanwhile, Western Resources executives are expanding and diversifying their company. Mayor Knight said he wished the Western Resources executives would spend as much time trying to solve the unfair rate structure as they do trying to get into major league baseball. Mayor Knight asked that all the citizens of Wichita and in the KGE rate paying base join in a petition drive and letter campaign expressing outrage. Motion -- Cole moved that the City immediately proceed with a petition drive regarding displeasure over the disparity between Wichita and northeast Kansas electric -- carried rates. Motion carried 7 to 0. Council Member Kamen Council Member Kamen requested information as to what percentage of Wolfcreek power is being delivered outside the Wichita area, and what percentage citizens of Wichita or this area customers are paying of the Wolfcreek Plant. ADDENDUM ITEM PUBLIC AGENDA Comments by Amy Manning. Amy Manning Amy Manning, President of Tealbrook Estates, expressed continuing concerns over the proposed Northwest Treatment Plant. Tealbrook Estates embraces the proposal to form an advisory group of potentially affected parties to try to form a consensus on the best plan possible to service the City and County, and still protect the property values and life styles of the residents. The advisory group will have a unique opportunity to help decide what to do regarding the Northwest Treatment Plant, and may help find a new procedure with which the City can approach large decisions that have far reaching impacts. A group of concerned citizens who believe that the public has the right and the responsibility to be a part of the planning and development of the community has been formed. The City and County should work closely with surrounding cities to ensure public representation in developing a long-range plan for the community. Neighborhood decisions should not be allowed as this is one community. The future should be planned together. The quality of life in residential areas should be paramount in attaining the goal of long-term, responsible growth. Citizens should feel comfortable and safe at home. Children should be able to grow up in a safe and healthy environment. The right to live in urban, suburban, or rural areas should be respected. The natural environment and historical significance of the community should be respected and maintained. Existing natural beauty should be planned around. The heritage of the community should be respected. The impact of proposed development and the affect it will have on the environment, now and in the future, should be realized. Infrastructural, commercial, and industrial development needs should be done for the long-range and should be well publicized. Zoning should be public and respect the involvement of residential, commercial, and industrial concerns. Economic development should be creative and respectful to the long-range plan of the community. All citizens and potential citizens should know the direction and growth of the community so informed decisions can be made. The goal is for this group to become a forum for the expression and representation of many views and concerns of the citizens throughout Wichita and Sedgwick County. In a responsible and organized way, the group would like to forge a path for a solution which will be beneficial and fair to all parties involved in the process. Ms. Manning invited the Council to the next meeting of the Citizens for Responsible Planning and Growth, Thursday night, July 30, 1998, at 7:00 p.m., at Eberly Farms. NEW BUSINESS BUDGET 1999 ANNUAL OPERATING BUDGET AND REVISIONS TO THE 1998 BUDGET. Ray Trail Director of Finance reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 98-666. The City Council has received the City Manager’s Proposed 1999/2000 Budget (including the TIF Districts). The Council is conducting workshops on the proposed Budget, and is receiving public comment at the weekly Council meetings. The proposed 1999 annual operating budget is $288,754,780. Interfund transactions and appropriated fund balances increase this amount to $346,906,534. The inclusion of the expendable trust funds, as required by law, is an additional $69,363,094 for a total of $416,269,628. The budget would necessitate a mill levy of 31.225 mills, no change from the levy requirement for the 1998 adopted budget. The General Fund property tax levy is $37,383,792 (including a delinquency allowance) at an estimated 21.232 mills. The levy for the Debt Service Fund is $17,594,962 (including a delinquency allowance) and is estimated at 9.993 mills. The dollar amounts, after they are set in the published notice of hearings on the proposed budget, cannot be exceeded, although the City Council may determine subsequently to reduce them. Formal hearing and adoption are scheduled for August 11. If subsequent actions result in an increase to the budget, a process of republication, hearings and certification will be required. In addition to action on the 1999 Budget, it is requested that action be taken to amend the 1998 adopted budget as follows: 1. The Debt Service Fund is increased $4,010,080. Temporary note financing was increased to provide expenditure authority for several capital projects included in the adopted Capital Improvement Program (CIP) but not yet incorporated in the DSF. 2. The Convention and Tourism Fund is being amended $659,140, increasing debt service expenditures for the conference center parking garage and the Century II/Expo Hall energy complex. 3. The Special Alcohol Programs Fund increases expenditure authority $164,180. The increase will make higher than anticipated revenue available for funding programs. 4. The Special Parks and Recreation Fund is increased $76,180. This fund, required by law, provides an annual transfer from private club liquor tax receipts into the City’s General Fund. Resources were greater than anticipated, allowing for a larger amount to be transferred. 5. The Storm Water Utility Fund is increased $2,714,260 to provide a one-time transfer of $1.4 million to capital projects, $210,000 for pump station rehabilitation, an increase of the reserve by $785,000, and approximately $150,000 to absorb increases in both price and frequency of floodway mowing. 6. The Golf Course Fund is amended upward $81,000 to absorb salary improvements and to purchase additional mowing equipment. 7. The Stationery Stores Fund is $491,570 higher to allow the replacement of two printers and a copier with a document publisher, as well as an increase in the reserve amount. 8. The Data Center Fund is amended $680,490 to fund initiatives including: developing Internet applications, implementing optical imaging, expanding GIS, extension of the network to remote sites, Y2K solutions, and transitioning to a uniform office automation environment. 9. The Telecommunications Fund is increased $68,620 primarily to increase the reserve for a contingency as implementation of the new phone system begins. 10. The Self-Insurance Fund is increased $4,754,910 to pay for increased health insurance costs and to provide authorization for interfund transfers. 11. The TIF District #2 Trust Fund is amended upward $257,520 to allow purchase of necessary capital outlay, to provide a larger contingency commensurate with the uncertainties associated with the clean-up, and an additional $80,000 for consultant fees (Camp, Dresser, and McKee). Publication of the notice of formal hearing will set the maximum dollars that may be expended in each fund. The City Council may subsequently reduce expenditures required (and proposed tax dollars to be levied) but not increase them. As required by law, the proposed budget will be published with appropriated balances. State statutes require formal public hearings prior to approval of the annual operating budget and for budget amendments of published funds. The 1999 Budget must be adopted by the City Council on August 11, and will be filed with the County Clerk by the statutorial date of August 25. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired whether anyone wished to speak. James Roseboro James Roseboro, President of the Board of Wichita Independent Neighborhoods, commended and thanked the Council for the opportunity to give input to the budget process. Motion -- Knight moved that the Public Hearing on proposed 1999 Budget (including the TIF Districts)and the revised 1998 Budget be set for August 11, 1998; and the Ordinances be placed on first reading. Motion carried -- carried 7 to 0. ORDINANCE An Ordinance making and fixing general tax levy for the City of Wichita, Kansas, for the year beginning January 1, 1999, and ending December 31, 1999, and relating thereto, and concurrently approving certain amendments to the 1998 adopted budget, introduced and under the rules laid over. ORDINANCE An Ordinance making and filing an increment in ad valorem taxes for the Gilbert and Mosley Site Redevelopment District, City of Wichita, Kansas, for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 1999, and ending December 31, 1999, introduced and under the rules laid over.

MCCOMAS WATER LINE WATER LINE EXTENSION PROJECT IN MCCOMAS SOUTH OF TAFT-UNDERGROUND STORAGE. (District IV) Chris Cherches City Manager reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 98-667. Currently, no public water system exists along McComas Street between Taft Street and Kellogg. Properties in this area use water from private wells. Water quality tests performed by the local health department and KDHE showed that the groundwater from which these wells draw water has been contaminated by leaking underground fuel storage tanks operated by the Coastal Mart at 400 South West Street. The contaminated groundwater poses potential health risks to residents who use well water for domestic consumption. KDHE asked the City to assist in the effort to provide potable water to this area to relieve the health risks associated with continued groundwater use. City staff submitted a cost estimate for installation of water lines and meters of $47,820. KDHE has approved having the City of Wichita install a water main and meters to serve the properties on McComas between Taft and Kellogg, and to install a meter to serve 3705 West Taft, which is adjacent to an existing water main. Providing municipal water to these properties and disconnecting the plumbing from wells will relieve the residents from risks associated with contaminated well water. KDHE has approved costs not to exceed $47,820. These costs will include installation, by Water & Sewer Department personnel, of a water main from Taft to Kellogg along McComas, installation of meters to 18 properties on McComas, and plant equity fees for these properties. The City of Wichita will invoice Coastal Mart for these costs and fees and KDHE will reimburse Coastal Mart from the Petroleum Storage Tank Release Trust Fund. Additionally, Water & Sewer personnel will tap an existing water main and install a meter to serve the property at 3705 West Taft. The City will invoice Coastal Mart $1,270 for the tap fee and plant equity fee for this property and KDHE will reimburse Coastal Mart from the Trust Fund. KDHE requested a waiver of the in lieu of assessment fee for this property. The Development Coordination Committee found that the property met the requirements and intent of City ordinance and policies and granted the waiver. Owners of property served by these improvements will obtain bids from plumbers for installation of consumer lines to connect their properties to the meters and disconnect their wells from their plumbing. KDHE will reimburse the owners for these costs from the Trust Fund. Council Member Gale Council Member Gale requested information on how much of the Wichita area is still not on City water. Motion -- Gale moved that the installation of the water main and meters be approved and the -- carried Mayor be authorized to sign the necessary documents. Motion carried 7 to 0. FINANCIAL REPORT QUARTERLY FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998. Motion -- carried Ferris moved that this Item be deferred one week. Motion carried 7 to 0. CITY COUNCIL AGENDA N.W. SEWER MASTER PLAN RECOMMENDATION FOR STEPS AND PROCEDURES REGARDING NORTHWEST SEWER MASTER PLAN. (Requested by Council Member Ferris) Council Member Ferris Council Member Ferris stated that he would like to put together a study group and spend some time evaluating the process and alternatives for the future. The goal is to appoint a group of ten to thirteen people that would include representatives from northwest Wichita, southeast Wichita, Brooks Landfill area, Staff, consultants, a non-biased engineer (not doing business with the City) with expertise in this area, and someone from Wichita State University. Recommendations from the group on ways to mitigate some of the perceived and real problems, and options, would be brought back to the Council. Council Members from the areas mentioned might provide names of persons to serve to the Manager. Council Members who wish to participate will be welcome. The group would meet one time per week (the first meeting in two weeks) for six to seven weeks in the Idea Center. Council Member Ferris asked that Staff responses to questions by the public from the July 14, 1998, Council Meeting be made available for distribution. Council Member Cole Council Member Cole expressed hope that there would be fair allocation of people representing all potentially affected party areas. Gary Rebenstorf Director of Law stated that the City Council has the prerogative to set up a study group to advise the City Council. A formal Board would have to follow formal procedures. Council Member Ferris Council Member Ferris, responding to questions, said he is asking for a commitment from those in the group to miss no more than one meeting. Council Member Ferris will provide leadership as moderator of the group. The Government Relations Director will take notes and minutes and will provide updated information. This will not be a formal Board. The group will have 50 percent of the people from the affected areas. Most will be from the northwest area rather than other areas. Council Member Lambke Council Member Lambke stated that, theoretically, if Council Member Ferris can reject another Council Member’s representative selections, there would be no representation from various areas. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight suggested Council Members Lambke and Ferris discuss this matter and work out a solution. There was no further action on this matter.

Agenda Report No. 98-678. On March 4, 1997, the City Council approved a contract with Brown & Caldwell for engineering services for a Sewer Master Plan for Northwest Wichita, in response to the rapid development in that area. On, March 3, 1998, the recommendations of the completed Northwest Sewer Master Plan were submitted to the City Council. On July 14, 1998, the City Council held a public hearing concerning the proposed wastewater treatment plant for northwest Wichita. This public hearing followed several weeks of public meetings, tours, and other informational outreach efforts by City staff. The original contract with Brown & Caldwell did not anticipate the additional services associated with the public hearings, development of costs for other alternatives, etc. Brown & Caldwell had associated with the local engineering firm PEC for the Master Plan effort. The engineer’s continued involvement in providing staff and the City Council with engineering analysis of various wastewater handling and treatment options and responding to citizen concerns will be required to reach a workable solution in this area. Staff has asked Brown & Caldwell to develop a supplemental agreement for such additional services. The original contract was for $99,836. The supplemental agreement amount is $35,000. The authorized amount for the NW Sewer Master Plan (CIP Project #S-109 ) is now $165,000 (subproject of S-5 Sewer Mains for Future Development). Other expenses against this authorization include a contract for $18,500 with Sullivan, Higdon, Sink for public relations consulting, a $9,900 agreement with PEC for services related to citizen meetings and additional engineering analysis of alternatives and $1,000 to Multimedia Production Services for production of a public information video.

This program requires 10% ($71,154) in local matching funds for a total of $711,538. Grant funds are intended to help localities support projects that reduce crime and improve public safety. The deadline for submitting the grant application to the Bureau of Justice administration is July 31, 1998, with funding awards anticipated in September, 1998.

SLUDGE TREATMENT AGREE #15SLUDGE TREATMENT AND MANAGEMENT PLANT - SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT #15. (All Districts) Agenda Report No. 98-680. On November 9, 1993, the Sludge Treatment and Management Plan was presented to the City Council by staff and representatives of the City's engineer, Brown & Caldwell. The plan outlined recommendations to achieve compliance with United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) regulations governing the use, treatment, and disposal of municipal wastewater sludge (40 CFR, Part 503). On December 14, 1993, City Council adopted the Sludge Treatment and Management Plan. In order to fund the improvements recommended in the plan, Council approved appropriate sewer rate adjustments for 1994, 1995, and 1996, along with an amended CIP and operating budget. On May 9, 1995, Council amended the Plan to include storage of biosolids on the Sewage Treatment Plant #2 site, directed staff to implement the privatization of biosolids transportation, modified the staffing plan, and amended the 1995(R), 1996(R), and 1997 budgets. The proposed amendment provides for modifications of specifications, assistance during the bid process, and construction management services for Plant #1 Lift Station Variable Frequency Drive and Motor Control Center Replacement. Specification modification is necessary to accommodate a complete motor control center replacement in lieu of modification. It was found during the bid process that new replacement is near the cost of modification and offers better long-term system reliability with a longer service life. The additional work is for modification of the process control system to accept and operate additional plant processes. The Sludge Treatment and Management Plan (CIP #S-500) has available funds of $1,792,485. This expenditure will be paid from Sewer Utility cash reserves and/or a future bond issue. To date the Water & Sewer Department has contracts and amendments, including this amendment, totaling $6.876 million with Brown & Caldwell for engineering services. The total cost of supplemental agreement #15 is not to exceed $88,873. Motion -- Knight moved that the Supplemental Agreement be approved and the Mayor -- carriedbe authorized to execute.

The initiation was first increased by the Authority on November 17, 1997 and by the City Council on December 9, 1997. The initiation was increased a second time by the Authority on July 20, 1998. The project has been included in a Capital Improvement Program of the City of Wichita. The previously initiated amount is being increased to include temporary note interest and inspection payroll. The maximum permanent financing term for this entire project would be 15 years. A rate structure exists that provides for specific cost recovery on this project over the financing term. This action approves only the intent to use City of Wichita bonding authority in the future and does not specifically authorize the issuance of debt nor does it preclude the use of any substitute funding source. The estimated maximum debt to be incurred, based on the best present Information, is $100,000 (an increase of $5,000). Motion --Knight moved that the the Notice of Intent to use City of Wichita Bonding authority be approved and the Resolution be adopted. Motion carried -- carried 7 to 0. RESOLUTION NO.

(District VIII) Agenda Report No. 98-682. A Mr. Kenneth Nottingham of 15877 SW Ponderosa Rd., a property served by Rural Water District #8, has applied to the Rural Water District #8 Board for waiver of the ten(10) acre minimum requirement on lot size that Rural Water District #8's contract requires with the City of Wichita. The Board has approved Mr. Nottingham's request and has forwarded this to the City for consideration. Section 15 of the amended wholesale service agreement with Rural Water District #8 stipulates that "the Purchaser may provide a benefit unit to a customer not otherwise meeting the requirements of this section if written application for a waiver of the requirements is first approved by the Purchaser's Board and the Seller's governing body." The Section goes on to state, they approve such waivers only in cases of extreme hardship beyond the control of the service applicant. Rural Water District #8 requires that benefit units award to lots ten(10) acres in size or larger. Mr. Nottingham's property is five(5) acres. Mr. Nottingham's application fits the extreme hardship criteria in that he purchased the property under the reasonable assumption that a well would provide water to the property. After investing in the well with many tests and attempts to raise the well water to state drinking water standards, it was determined that the well water was inadequate as a source of drinking water. Motion --Knight moved that the Hardship Waiver providing for water service to the -- carried property indicated be approved. Motion carried 7 to 0. PARK IMPROVEMENTS FUNDINGFUNDING FOR THIRD STREET DRAINAGE NEIGHBORHOOD PARK IMPROVEMENTS. (District I) Agenda Report No. 98-683. The drainage portion of the Third Street drainage project from I-135 to one block west of Hillside is nearing completion. In constructing this new drainage-way, a number of properties adjacent to the previous street right-of-way were acquired and cleared to provide room to construct the drainage project and to provide sufficient open space for aesthetics, neighborhood parks and pedestrian walkway purposes. To complete and finalize the project, improvements are required for the open space areas and designated park sites. Staff has developed designs - - after consultation with area residents - - for two small area playgrounds: one near Piatt; the other near Chautauqua. Development of these neighborhood park areas was included in the initial design concept presented to the neighborhood. As part of the project, two neighborhood park/playground areas are to be developed and maintained jointly by the Park and Recreation Department and by neighborhood residents and organizations. The two sites will provide playground equipment and aesthetic enhancements that will serve the adjacent neighborhoods as well as any other residents that wish to utilize this park/open space corridor. The estimated cost of the park improvements is $75,000. Funding is recommended to be from the Appropriated Reserve Account/Storm water Utility fund.

APPEAL SETTLEMENTSETTLEMENT OF CONDEMNATION APPEAL (CASE NO. 97 C 2004). (District VI) Agenda Report No. 98-686. Early in 1997 the Council authorized the acquisition by eminent domain of a tract of land at the southwest corner of Harry and Seneca in connection with the project to improve Seneca from Harry to Maple. The tract taken was a triangular piece of the parking lot. The property is owned by Lester Unrein and is operated as a club. The court appointed appraisers awarded the owner $4,250 for the portion of his property taken by the City for additional right-of-way. The owner appealed. During preparation for the trial of this matter, the owner offered to settle its appeal if the City would pay an additional $6,750.00. The City’s outside counsel estimated that the costs of proceeding with the trial would be close to this amount. The owner’s position is that the taking adversely affects his parking and, consequently, the ability to continue the club operation. This is the last pending right-of-way acquisition for the Seneca Street improvements. The cost of acquiring this property will be paid out of the street improvement project.
